1. Here is a reminder about the task you are responsible for:

* Create a list of the new "discoveries" that were found during the expedition.
  • Draw pictures of 3 or 4 of the items that were discovered.
  • For each of the items you choose to draw, include major facts and details to help describe the items.
  • Tell where the items were found and why their discovery was significant.

2. You may want to make or use special paper to make your list and pictures more realistic. You can take white (or off-white) construction paper and roll it up in a ball to wrinkle it. Do this several times, then smooth the paper out. To make it look older, paint both sides of the paper with strong tea or coffee. Let it hang to dry, or press it between two layers of paper towel. When it is dry, you can use a thin pen or marker to write your list or draw pictures. (Make one sheet of paper for each item, and one for the list!)

3. Now begin your research! You will need to take notes as you navigate on the world wide web! Later, you will use these notes to create your list and item detail sheets, as if you were a member of the Corps of Discovery!
